scam
i have tried to reach out multiple times and have been hit with no response or insulting responses. i got a discount on some dog food so i decided to try it out and get my puppy a few weeks worth of food. the food didn’t agree with him and made him itchy and tired all the time. because of this, i decided to gift the leftover food to a neighbour and cancel my subscription. after this, when i was on holiday, i realised that £56 had come out of my account and i was told by my family who stayed at home that a huge box had been delivered. i was extremely angry as i was on a solo trip and only had a little bit of money left, so when i found out that you stole that money from me, i was devastated and quite frankly scared as it actually put me in harms way. it was my emergency money that you felt was okay to take without my permission. i cancelled my subscription and i sent an email saying why i had to cancel it. i did everything right and i went above and beyond to leave feedback. its been a few weeks and i am still devastated and disappointed as well as angry. i expect this to be solved and for me to have a full refund. your food not only made my puppy poorly, but as i said you put me in harms way when i was by myself abroad. please let me know what you are going to do to fix this. if this is not solved i will have to escalate this.
thanks

Only informed of size reduction after dispatch.
I have been buying tails for some time and the price has gone up considerably in that time, which is one thing.
But I find it quite underhand to tell me that my order is on its way and payment has been taken one day and then to tell me the feeding plan has been changed the next day when it is too late to cancel the order. The change resulting in me paying the same price for 5% less kibble.

good luck trying to get hold of them if you have an issue
I have been using tails for 4 years , in the beginning it was perfect. any issues you could call them and sort. NOW you'd be lucky to get an email back within a week. You can no longer call them if you have an issue so now trying to get hold of anyone is impossible. i currently have an issue with them.. i emailed them last week and STILL nothing.if i have no response i will have to cancel my sub. it SHOULD NOT BE LIKE THIS. Customers should come 1st.ESP considering the price we are paying for their food. i have emailed yet again today and NOTHING. appalling.
After writing this i have still had NO response despite their comment below , no one has got back to me .. i do not know what else to do apart from write to their head office.

Poor Support
Unfortunately a bad experience with Tails.com customer services. Order sent by Yodel, their first mistake. Due for delivery 10th November, didn't arrive, redelivery scheduled for 11th November, didn't arrive, rescheduled for today late this evening and then changed to back to 'at depot delivery due 15th'. All this information has been given to Tails.com as it happened on WhatsApp who assured me this morning it is out for delivery today? Not according to my Yodel app. Asked TC to cancel order and refund - no can do, so closed my account - they are not concerned just wished me luck! Why can't they pick up the phone to their account manager at Yodel and get the exact delivery date. It would seem the Yodel driver can't deliver to a rural area in the dark as both failed deliveries were late evening. Really disappointed with TC.

No way to cancel subscription BEWARE
Dogs won’t eat it! Have reached out to company via email and a week later still no response. No way to contact on account dashboard and no way to cancel future deliveries, only pause and then you have to remember to pause again before they take payment. Such a shame as have used before for other dogs years ago and they were more than helpful then. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED

Happy with the food but not the customer service
I had to cancel my subscription as I couldn't change the scoops of kibble on my account and I had too much kibble. Never received a response to the email I sent either. Happy with the food my dog's stomach is much more stable, however the customer service in my case has not been very good.

Generally very pleased
I am generally pleased with the food and the deliveries are reliable. My dog doesn’t eat all of the recommended kibble and so the bag usually lasts me 2 months. I don’t find the website very helpful or the instructions to cancel the dried food for a month but continuing with the wet food easy to follow, but this is the only issue I have.

I’m a bit annoyed that I’m not able to cancel kibble on my orders, I use the correct measurement for my Miniature Pinscher but still have 2 full bags plus 1 I am using and not much storage space!!!
Picky eater
Daisy is a very picky eater will eat everything one day and turn her nose up the next. So I really appreciate being able to delay or even cancel a months supply

Great service from tails.com if I’ve needed to cancel not a problem my Dottie loves their food , and the treats, overall well worth it.
My dog just won’t eat it !
Although I received the trial food my dog won’t eat it ! so ive had to cancel

Customer service is terrible
Customer service is terrible. I email takes a week or more to get a response. Which is do it on line. I have tried trying to cancel or reduce your kibble is impossible. So I email again and wait again. Then it's too late to change my order this month but we will sort it for next. The the same again the next month. Absolute nightmare. If it wasn't for the fact my dogs like the food I would have left. One more try this month. Otherwise I will have to move. Sort out your Customer service or should I sat lack of it

Incredibly Greedy Company. Greedier than our Labrador!
We’ve held a Tails subscription for a few years. In that time, like many businesses that run an enshittification model, Tails has raised their prices (“in order to continue to provide quality/line our investors’ pockets”…the usual guff).
To provide some context, our subscription began 3 years ago at around £35 and it’s now £55 for dry dog food that has gradually diminished in quality. That’s a colossal price hike and it’s only ever going to go up. Every single year!
Whenever we’ve tried to cancel, Tails has lowered the fee for 3 months before raising it again.
Today, we cancelled our subscription for good. Avoid Tails. Their overheads can’t be as high as they claim. They’re just inexcusably greedy!
EDIT: The canned response to this review is the same copy-and-paste reply they’ve given to other reviewers who have complained about price gouging. Don’t buy it. An increase of £20 over a 3 year period, coupled with a decrease in the quality of the food isn’t cost absorption or an environmental consideration. It’s greed and greenwashing.

Consistently increase pricing by 20%
Tails claim to be ethical and transparent about pricing but there are so many occasions when they lure you in with a price only to up that price a few months later. They also do not take into consideration any current market conditions and increase prices by 20% as many times as they like. Your only choice then is to cancel and give your custom to another brand.
Think twice before you buy from them.
UPDATE
Only a few minutes after writing this review 2 other customers have followed with exactly the same experience and now a representative of Tails wants to speak to me to try to get the price down by using cheaper ingredients.
Ellie, I have replied to emails and tried to fill in the form from Trustpilot and will gladly talk to you, however the issue is that your company lured me in with a discounted 1st order and then a great monthly price only to add 20% 2 months later. This, I am finding out is a common practice of Tails and 20% has been added to most if not all subscriptions at least once a year. My dog loves the food and is very healthy but I am on a low fixed income and cannot afford 20% increases every year.

Unhappy dog and customer
Recently went back to tails to give it another go but my dog still refuses to eat the food and it is hard to cancel the subscription that I seem to have joined again. They lured me back with a free month but I was charged so am confused.
